with Supt. Case and General Manager
Clark, of the Milwaukee, road. boarded a
special train and madea careful examina-
ton of the crossings of the streets in the
Seventh and Eighth wards on the Hastings
and Dakota line of the road. 1t was esti-
mated that the tracks of the road should be
lowered at least fifteen feet and the prob
able cost of the work was put at 500, 900.
The railroad officials asked that the city
should share the expense. but it was de-
cided to have survey and estimate of
cost made before that point is discussed. 1t
is altogether likely, however. that the city
will aid TO the extent of bridging streets

A COMmoN-sENsE VIEW.

Neither Politics nor Il elig ion Sin oul d
interfere with the Fire Depart-
ment.
The bitter attack in the Folkebladet upon
Chief Stetson of the fire department, which
was published IN the GLOBE of last Sun
day, has stirred up considerable comment
and feeling. Chief Stetson was called an
"IriShman, Catholic and Scandinavian
hater." and reflections were cast upon the
bravery of the firemen of the department.
1t appears that Mr.. Stetson is neither an
1rishman nor Catholic, although it would
not be gener lily considered as detrimental
to his character if he was either, or both.
The charge that he is Scandinavian
hater' has been anphatically denied by the
tirmen, including several ScandinavianS.
Since the publication of the article some
spicy correspondence upon the subject has
passed. The publishers Of the FOlkebladet
wrote the chief asking:
Why and for what reason Scandinavians
who apply for places in the fire department
as firemen cannot be appointed? 1t is a we'll
known fact that in this city there are Scan
dinavians who have applied for places as fire.
men and who have shown the public they
could do duty saving lives at fires that no
body else present could. This looks strange
to everybody and we would like to know if it
is because they are Scandinavians.
In reply to this letter Chief Stetson
writes:
You ask the question why the Scandina-
VANS are not appointed on the fire depart
Inent. Such is not a fact On the contrary
q number of Scandinavians have been ap-
pointed on the force. and l shall appoint
others in turn, if after examination
l find the applicant possesses
such practical fitness and intellectual
and physical capacity as 1 consider requisite
to make up the fireman. The same rule ap-
plies to all nationaities. No person is ap-
point ed for his religious or political opinions.
1t is necessary for all applicants to conform
to certain conditions, a copy of which | here

GLOBE, copied from the Folkebladet, which
lampooned and ridiculed me. don't want to
see any more of it. and if l do, yon must be
prepared to prove what you publish unless
you can publish facts.
Chief Stetson stated yesterday that he has
always endeavored to prevent the questions
of nationality, politics or religion from af-
fectng the selection of men. Upon the eff
6ciency of the department depends the
safety of the lives and property of citizens,
and he intends, so far as he is concerned, to
select men adapted to the work which they
are required to perform,
